Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

The IRS definition is: "A limited liability company (LLC) is an entity created by a state statue".

A LLC is a separate entity from its owners, therefore the owners have limited liability towards the company's debts or obligations. If it has only 1 owner, it is taxed like a sole proprietorship, if it has 2 or more owners it is taxed like a general partnership.

On certain occasions a LLC with several owners can choose to be taxed as S corporations or C corporations.
